    Im just liking the fact ive picked a breakaway member for once! (both teams) Should stay away, only about another 40km to halfway

    Both purist teams?? How many teams do you have…..

    My purist team is almost the same, just swap EBH for GVA. With snow being forecast for Sunday, I didn’t pick anybody who’s only riding KBK just in case it’s cancelled.
